Episode 6: Percy's "Finest" Hour
May 21, 1951
You already know this, but bare with me. Percy fixes tracks on the Union Pacific. He usually works with his best friend Jeff, but today that would change.
Percy: *walks along station*
Pete: Percy, I have some bad news.
Percy: What is it?
Pete: Jeff isn't feeling well, and took the day off. So we got you another pony to work with.
Percy: Uh, ok. Where is he?
Pete: He's right here.
The new pony was a black stallion, and walked rather quickly to the two ponies. His voice made him sound like he smoked 10 packs of cigarettes.
BS: Hello. My name is.. Douchebag.
Pete: Uh, yeah. You're working with Douchebag until Jeff feels better.
Percy: Ok. Come on Douchebag, I'll show you around.
Douchebag: Ok. *follows*
Percy: *walks to servicing facility* Sometimes we get to service engines here, but we mostly fix tracks.
Douchebag: Uh huh.
Percy: Over there is our truck. We drive it around the tracks, but if we're lucky we get to ride on a railcar.
Douchebag: Where are the keys to the truck?
Percy: I have them.
Douchebag: *steals keys*
Percy: Hey!
Douchebag: *steals truck*
Percy: I cannot believe this is happening. *runs to railcar*
As Douchebag was driving away, he nearly hit a train
Hawkeye: Whoa! Who was that?
Percy: *driving rail car toward Hawkeye's train* NO! *stops*
Hawkeye: *driving 39 miles an hour*
Percy: Come on! I have a theif to catch!
But luckily for Percy, the truck stalled
Douchebag: Grrrrr. How do I fix this?! *turns key* It didn't start *turns key*
Hawkeye: *passes Douchebag*
Meanwhile at the switch
Percy: *sees the end of Hawkeye's train* Finally *drives onto mainline*
Douchebag: *starts truck*
Percy: This pony is more obnoxious then Gordon
Douchebag: *driving at 25 miles an hour*
Percy: *catching up*
Douchebag: *doing 30*
Percy: *catching up*
Douchebag: *doing 35*
Percy: *catches up* Douchebag!! Stop the truck!
Douchebag: No!
Percy: I now see why they call you Douchebag!
Douchebag: *rams Percy off rails*
Percy: *Flying after Douchebag*
Douchebag: *drives on train tracks*
Percy: *lands on truck*
Douchebag: Get off!!
Percy: no
Douchebag: *swerves to left*
Percy: *nearly falls off*
Douchebag: *Swerves to right*
Percy: *falls off*
Douchebag: Hahahaha. *sees train* AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *crashes*
Orion: Oh my god! How many times am I going to crash into things?!
Douchebag was hurt, but his injury wasn't serious.
Pete: How is it not serious? You ran into a train!
Douchebag: I know! Don't rub it in for crying out loud!
Pete: So you crashed a truck into a train on your first day. wow, you're fired.
Douchebag: Whatever.
Pete: And you're fired too
Percy: Me?!
Pete: Yes you!
Percy: What did I do?! That idiot stole the keys from me, and just took off after I told him not too!
Douchebag: Desperate, so desperate.
Percy: I am not! That's what happened!!
Pete: Just get outta here.
Percy: *flies away* I can't believe this is happening
Percy went to the station when he saw Red Rose.
Red Rose: Percy? What's wrong?
Percy: I got fired.
Red Rose: *gasp* Why?
Percy: Apparently I let a new worker steal a truck, and crash into a train.
Red Rose: That's terrible.
Percy: Yeah. If only Jeff wasn't sick.
Red Rose: Wait a minute. You just gave me an idea!
Percy: What?
Red Rose: Where's Coffee Creme?
Percy: I don't know.
Red Rose: Alright. What about Gordon?
Percy: He doesn't come back from his break until tomorrow.
Red Rose: Shit! Do you know where Jeff lives?
Percy: I think so.
Red Rose: Than go find him.
Percy: I'm on it! *flies off*
While that was going on..
Orion: Sir, did you really have to fire Percy? He was chasing Douchebag, then got rammed off the tracks.
Pete: You saw this happen?
Orion: Not all of it, but I saw how Percy got hurt.
Pete: How did the truck push his cart off the rails?
Orion: It went fast, and rammed his cart by the side. He was pretty desperate to stop Douchebag. He even fell off the truck when trying to stop him.
Pete: And why did I fire him?
Orion: Yeah, why did you fire him?
Pete: Because he let that pony take the truck in the first place. Now if I saw how Douchebag got his hands on the keys, I wouldn't have fired him.
There was nothing more Orion could say. He just returned to his train, and continued to the station
Meanwhile, Percy was still looking for Jeff. Percy flew along the streets of Cheyenne, and suddenly saw Jeff coming out of a pharmacy.
Percy: Jeff!
Jeff: Percy? What are you doing? I'm not feeling well.
Percy: I know, but listen. Do you know how you got sick?
Jeff: My doctor said it was from a filly I accidentally bumped into. She had some kind of virus.
Percy: When was it?
Jeff: Near my house.
Percy: No, when was it?
Jeff: Last night.
Percy: Alright. Time travel away.
Jeff: Uh, Percy? I don't know any time traveling spells.
Percy: Great. Our only hope is Coffee Creme.
Gordon: *stops nearby* Or you can count on me.
Percy: Gordon? But you're not supposed to get back until tomorrow.
Gordon: Yeah well I didn't want to get late so I decided to leave early. Anyway, that's not the point. I heard you got fired, and needed some help.
Percy: Who told you this?
Gordon: Orion. He called me at the airport when I got back, and I came looking for you. Where are we heading?
Percy: To May 20, 1951. Cheyenne.
Jeff: On the intersection of West 25, and Carey Avenue.
Gordon: Got it.
As his horn lit up, Gordon concetrated on time travelling to last night.
Gordon: Well, we're here.
Jeff: There I am, and there's the Filly with her parents.
Percy: Let's stop you. *runs toward past Jeff*
filly: *walking towards past Jeff*
Future Jeff: Look out!
Past Jeff: *backs away from filly*
Parents: What are you doing shouting like that?! And why do you look exactly like this stallion?
Future Jeff: Time traveling unicorn here saved my life.
Gordon: That's me.
Parents: Come on Mary Sue *walk with filly*
Gordon: Well, we saved yourself from getting sick, and Percy is no longer fired.
The three ponies time travelled back into the morning of May 21, 1951
Percy: Good morning Pete
Pete: Morning Percy, Hi Jeff.
Jeff: What's good Pete?
Douchebag: *walks up*
Pete: Oh, you don't have to be here today Douchebag, Jeff is feeling fine.
Douchebag: Good. Cuz I'm not coming back here again *walks off*
Jeff: Is that the pony that was going to replace me?
Pete: Yeah. I thought you said you weren't feeling well.
Jeff: I tried calling you this morning. I feel better now.
Pete: Alright then. Get to work you two.
Percy: Yes sir *walks to servicing facility*
Jeff: *follows*

The End
On the next episode of Ponies On The Rails...
Pete tells a story of his past.
Well.. I'll say Sword was right about it being sad again.
But that would lead too him say
"I told you so"
And I'll say
"Don't have too rub it in"
And he'll say
"Yes I do"
And than he'll pour coffee onto me.
And I'll say
"Dick"
And he'll say
"Thank you"
either way.. I'm enjoying the funny episode while I can. Before I have too start crying again.
This show is doing anything it can too depress us. Like it's the shows job.. Too kick us in the balls and say "Life sucks, deal with it"
The show is an asshole.

So.. Here's another review..
The strory Nina reads is weird.. Especially the way she reads it.
I'd say I understand it now. But.. I don't.
This so is so confusing.
But hey. It's like THE ACCOUNTANT. I had no idea what exactly happened, just watched for the gun fights, and was happy.
This show has kind of animation.. All anime have that sort of odd animation, where people look like pictures, not normal people at times.
But hey.. Good episodes I guess.. The hitman seems dead. Guess now Johan actually has too "do stuff", witch must suck for him xD

I think I seen episode 9 before.
Well, at least the scene where Todd discovers the truth of his rock opera.
It's funnier now that I know what he's actually talking about.
Aaron paul's voice is so funny when having a character like Todd trying to actually "think".
And the fact it WASN'T revenge, is too funny.
I love you Todd..
Anyway.. The show is certainly a lot deeper now.
Sometimes it's a good thing.. But sometimes it's a depressing thing.. Mixes between those things.
We're almost done season 1 anyway, next week join me for the conclusion of season 1..

sorry for the delay.. I thought I was sick yesterday. But turns out it's indigestion or something.
Anyway.. Guess I got my wish.
Something is actually "happening" now.
I thought THE BABY would lead to the show becoming my exciting, but turns out it's that other guy. Whatever his name is. The bodyguard that betrayed the guy in episode 21.
As usual, I don't really have much to say. But it did convince me to rewatch episode 4.
I think that's my favourite episode so far. It reminds me why I'm watching it, moments like episode 4.
Or even that shootout in episode 21.
Oh well, hopefully this means I'm done the moments of "convincing myself" to keep watching this show. And actually have things happen now. :)
